2025 WORKSHOP REGISTRATION IS NOW OPEN

Discover the Artist Within You

Have you ever found yourself mesmerized by the beauty of mandalas—and secretly wished you could create one yourself? Maybe you’ve been telling yourself “I’m not creative” or “I wouldn’t know where to start.”
That’s exactly why I created these workshops.

Since 2022, I’ve been helping others (just like you)  tap into a side of themselves they’ve been longing to explore—the creative side that’s been waiting quietly in the wings. And I do it in a way that’s simple, encouraging, and even a little hand-holding when you need it.

What to Expect: A Stress-Free, Step-by-Step Experience

My workshops are designed with beginners in mind. I break everything down into easy, step-by-step instructions, offering patterns and color palettes to get you started. And when you’re feeling adventurous? There’s always a rainbow of colors waiting if you’d like to create your own.

You’ll spend the first hour practicing and learning the techniques, and then you’ll move into about two hours of painting your own beautiful mandala stone—a piece you’ll feel proud to show off.

And the best part?
You don’t need any prior art experience. I provide everything you need. You simply show up, sip some tea, and let yourself play.

Location: A Beautiful Space to Create and Relax

I host my workshops in the cozy, light-filled boardroom at Dymon Storage – Trainyards in Ottawa.
This space has become my creative home—a bright, accessible, and comfortable venue with free parking, coffee, tea, and refreshments. Whether you come alone (many do!) or bring a few friends, you’ll feel welcomed and supported from the moment you arrive.

More Than a Mandala: Leave With Pride and Joy

My favorite part? Watching attendees surprise themselves. They always leave with more than a painted stone—they leave with pride, joy, and a little spark of “Wow, I did that!”

If you’ve been waiting for the perfect, stress-free way to explore your creative side, this is your invitation.

Come paint with me.
